This is a real piece of luck! Now, if it turns out that 5x7 photography doesn't "stick" with you, at least you have a fine collectible, to act as a conversation starter for years to come!
What a find!

makes initial reseach quick and easy so I typed his
name into Google.... A wealth of information followed.
